Just be careful what you do online, that junk mail doesn't just appear, places you go and things you do cause that stuff to find you. Just think long and hard before giving your email address out. Hell, you could do what I do. I use my ISP email address for signing up for **** I don't care about. It's got 25 megs of space to use so I don't need to check regularly. If I'm interested in what I'm signing up for then I'll put the email address I use in. If not, then I sign up my ISP address. It does pay to have a backup email address solely for **** you don't care about. I don't get enough email to need 25 megs. 4 megs does just fine considering I rarely exceed the 20% marker. Again, just be careful. The internet is a dangerous place if you don't know what you're doing. Junk mail is just getting off easy. A friend of mine was over and he started looking at porn. Later after he left, I found 4 viruses and a ****load of software that literally just appeared. I had to do a system restore to get things back to normal and even then I still found another virus.

Whatever you do, don't eat limes. A friend of mine ate a lime once and BAM!! Two years later. Herpes.
